Modern rotary switches utilise a " star wheel " mechanism to provide the switching positions, such as at every 30, 45, 60, or 90 degrees.

The original FM had a rotary switch shutter button collar to lock the shutter, or switch to motor drive mode when the MD-11 was mounted.
33.
Rotary switches were used as channel selectors on television receivers until the early 1970s, as range selectors on electrical metering equipment, as band selectors on multi-band radios, etc.
34.
Like other typical rotary switches, the single terminal connects to one of the multiple terminals by rotating a contact arm, sometimes called a wiper, to the desired position.
35.
The original peripheral switches ( Rose, circa 1988 ) used a rotary switch while active electronic switches ( Cybex, circa 1990 ) used push buttons on the KVM device.
36.
One form of rotary switch consists of a spindle or " rotor " that has a contact arm or " spoke " which projects from its surface like a cam.
37.
In such dishwashers the electromechanical rotary switch often used to control the washing cycle is replaced by a microprocessor but most sensors and valves are still required to be present.
38.
Rotary switches were used as channel selectors on television receivers until the early 1970s, as range selectors on electrical metering equipment, as band selectors on multi-band radios and other similar purposes.
39.
A small encoder or even an analog potentiometer is the most likely sensor, or perhaps something as simple as a rotary switch similar to a Nimur 18 : 39, 27 May 2007 ( UTC)

Instead of slide potentiometers working on individual bands of frequency, or rotary switches, Flickinger's circuit allowed completely arbitrary selection of frequency and cut / boost level in three overlapping bands over the entire audio spectrum.
